Is the Website Translator app compatible with Shopify themes?

Elfsight works with modern Shopify themes, including Online Store 2.0, and integrates smoothly without requiring manual theme code edits in most cases.

Which translation technology does the Shopify app use?

The app is powered by Google’s translation engine, which analyzes your store’s content context to generate accurate and meaning-aware translations.

How are idiomatic or complex phrases translated?

The translation engine considers context and language patterns, helping ensure that expressions and nuanced wording are translated naturally instead of literally.

Can I exclude certain parts of my Shopify store from translation?

Yes, you can set exclusions for specific elements or text blocks so selected content stays in its original language.

Are email addresses changed during translation?

No, email addresses remain exactly as entered and are not modified by the translation process.

Can I track language selection behavior in Shopify?

By connecting Google Analytics, you can monitor events such as language changes or when visitors open the language switcher, helping you measure multilingual engagement.

Is manual translation editing available?

You can exclude specific words or phrases from automatic translation. Full custom translation editing is currently in development, as noted in our Community.
